The only countries in SOuth America you need a visa are Brazil, Paraguay, soon Bolivia (if they can get their act straight), sort of Chile (you pay a fee at the airport) if you arrive by air.  Nowhere else, maybe Venezuela soon, though based on their bombastic leader.

Answer 10

Hello,

I'm a US citizen living in Buenos Aires,  Argentina.  You DO NOT need a visa to visit Argentina and if you go over the 90 days as a tourists it's not a problem either.  Argentina is very flexible with visitors.  So don't worry, come and visit Argnetina.  I don't know why the people who answered first  are not aware of this!

Anyway. visit www.minihostels.com They have many hostels in Buenos Aires, and all over Argentina and South America.  If you don't want to spend all you money on expensive hotels just visit us and check out out available hostels.  Some are even less than 10 dollars per night.

Again, you do not need a visa to travel to Argentina.
